Killer Instinct S1 OST - Warlord (Spinal's Theme)

Composed by Mick Gordon.

[maximiliansinigr]

New Dark Souls 1 player: "it's just some skeletons, shouldn't be that bad"
The skeletons:

[IQPrower]

Spinal literally went from comic relief character to the most intimidating of them all in a cast that includes elemental aliens, cyber dinos, and killer robots

[nipulkradmsinatagras]

Classic Spinal Theme:
*"This is going to be a great fight."*

This Spinal Theme:
*"Only one of you is getting out of this battle alive."*

[supermoose]

Fun Fact: The flute in this track is played on a Kangling, a traditional Tibetan made out of a human femur.

[muggedmug]

The fact that Mick Gordon was using a real human bone to make the beat is actually insane.

[wyvernsith]

I love how spinal laughs like a 1990 Halloween decoration
Yet roars like an eldritch dinosaur lmao
I love it

[Korota]

An ancient Babylonian who became a Caribbean pirate with a theme song sung in Swedish. It kind of exemplifies the beautiful clusterfuck of concepts that Killer Instinct has mashed together into one setting.

[DexiduousRose]

The fact that his laugh is incorporated perfectly into the beat at that drop and another time a little after is so fucking awesome

[RED-hbdi]

I love how spinal is so menacing, godlike and his theme is so serious yet he is goofy and cackles like a Halloween decoration.

[vahlok]

A Swedish battle prayer to a skeleton pirate warrior god?

This is why I love KI.

[oldspice]

Boys, I've found our general for the skeleton war.

[cheframen]

My dreams will be complete when Spinal becomes a boss in Sea of Thieves

[savage]

*YOU RATTLED ME BONES*
*PREPARE FOR ETERNAL RETRIBUTION*

[mataco]

Sans: Daniel
Spinal: The cooler Daniel

[benbauer]

Mick Gordon: the only guy that can make xylophones sound scary.

[Triforce_of_Doom]

can we all appreciate that Mick Gordon went so far as to use an actual BONE FLUTE for part of the skeleton's theme song? Both this game & the recent DOOM games have made him one of my favorite composers period.

[glumbox]

I love how in game he's the only one who can actually run across the screen and he does it like a complete maniac.

[justadudehre]

The comic relief character gets a pagan war hymn for his theme song.

This game is an underrated gem.

[saylosrelyks]

What i appreciate about Mick Gordon unlike most other composers who work on remakes or reboots is that he takes the old sounds and just remixes them using newer styles, and it works, DOOM was a perfect example of how to take the original songs and update them but keep them recognizable by the fans.

[formeraxe]

This song inspires me to create villains for my D&D campaigns. So menacing, yet not edgy.
